Motorists urged to plan for J26 Wellington closure

The official diversion will take road users off at either J25 (Taunton) or J27 (Tiverton) and along the A38.

Sian Hughes, who lives in Wellington said the closure is going to be "horrendous".

She told BBC Radio Somerset:[1] "All of the traffic will have to come off at Junction 25 or Junction 27 especially at Taunton so it will cause chaos on the A38.

"I'm just going to have to leave earlier and hopefully I won't have to travel too far."

"My husband Rob is a driving instructor so it will really affect his lesson times," she added.

The Falcon bus service from Exeter up to Bristol Airport will not stop at J26 Wellington during the closure.
